bitbake error package not found in base feeds


I want to include https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ndeflib in my image. Thus I created a recipe for this. Following are the contents of python-ndeflib_0.2.0.bb

DESCRIPTION = "NFC Data Exchange Format decoder and encoder."
SECTION = "devel/python"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"

SRC_URI = "https://pypi.python.org/packages/0c/0f/b9d94cee7847697469c49a25b4d23236de534451990b83008e6bf4fab15b/ndeflib-0.2.0.tar.gz"

do_install_append() {
    rm -f ${D}${libdir}/python*/site-packages/site.py*
}

do_compile_prepend() {
    ${STAGING_BINDIR_NATIVE}/python setup.py install ${DISTUTILS_BUILD_ARGS} || \
    true
}
SRC_URI[md5sum] = "b7ae0c34f49289c44c292e24843cfeb1"

I am able to bitbake python-ndeflib successfully

but whenever I try to build my final os image bitbake fsl-image-machine-test the process fails at the with following error

ERROR: python-ndeflib not found in the base feeds

Thus where I am making mistake?


Solution

  • Did you try to write a recipe similar to the one in your previousquestion? That should have solved your issue.

    Writing something similar to that recipe, gives you python3-ndeflib_0.2.0.bb:

    DESCRIPTION = "NFC Data Exchange Format decoder and encoder."
    SECTION = "devel/python"
    LICENSE = "ISC"
    LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://LICENSE;md5=f7c92777f3af9604e192a0d195b6a6a4"
    
    SRC_URI[md5sum] = "b7ae0c34f49289c44c292e24843cfeb1"
    SRC_URI[sha256sum] = "baa86a48cf310cf77524f6fa04f5bd90775c4c290116b6b543aa3d6d65b721bf"
    
    inherit pypi setuptools3
    

    Which seems to work pretty well. Note that I used Python 3 instead of two (setuptools3).

    Ie inherit setuptools or setuptools3 instead of writing your own do_compile, do_install, etc, unless you really have to.
